Rocky Mtn. House RCMP weekly report for week of Feb. 15

Rocky Mountain House RCMP were busy last week responding to numerous calls.

The morning of Thursday, Feb. 15, Mounties responded to a report of a theft of a PS3 gaming console overnight at the O’Chiese First Nation.

Later that day, there was a reported assault also at O’Chiese.

On the evening of Friday the 16th, police say there responded an intoxicated male who was bleeding after a fall in the downtown area. The man was transported to hospital for stitches, but was later arrested after allegedly causing a disturbance by swearing and being uncooperative.

Shortly before 6 a.m. on the 17th, police responded to the theft of a pick-up truck from a residence on the town’s north end. The owner attempted to stop the culprits, but was unsuccessful. Suspects reportedly fled northbound. The vehicle is a white 2003 GMS Sierra with Alberta plate BDB2964.

Around 3 p.m. that day, RCMP stopped a pick-up truck for not having mud flaps. The driver had been drinking, police say, and he was issued a 30 day driving suspension, while his vehicle was seized for seven days.

Just after 8 p.m. on Feb. 18, police went to a call about an assault at O’Chiese First Nation. A male was arrested and charged accordingly.

The next night, there was a similar call around the same time also at O’Chiese. Police attended and arrested a female. Charges are pending.

On Feb. 20, Mounties attended a call from a local drinking establishment about an intoxicated male throwing pool balls and punching the front door, breaking the glass in the process. The male left in a vehicle before police could arrive.

In addition, Rocky RCMP responded to four collisions with deer, one with a moose, one with a raven, and six other MVCs. There were two 911 hang-ups and four false alarms.
